Re: Track Drop-down Menu commands

I wonder how many people change waveform view on the fly? Putting just those in a sub-menu would reduce the complexity and mean no current access keys would need to change. Do you mean, putting Waveform, Waveform dB, Spectrogram, Spectrogram log(f) and Pitch (EAC) into a "Track View" sub ...

Re: Track Drop-down Menu commands

By the way, is there any reason why the drop down menu isn't listed in the keyboard section of the preferences dialog? If it were the case, I'd simply assign the move up and down commands to Pg up and Pg down. There is one track drop-down menu for every track. Each track has its own drop-down menu....

Re: Track Drop-down Menu commands

I know that Robert said "I am not so fond of little undo steps", but I'm finding that it is extremely convenient to be able to "scroll" a track up and down with "Undo" and "Redo". I find that it makes moving tracks quick and accurate - in large projects it's e...

Re: Track Drop-down Menu commands

Have y'all considered using a right-click context menu to split off some of these chores? That would not be accessible for non-mouse users would it? Accessibility is very important to this feature - after all, mouse users can just drag tracks into the order they want. Actually I'm quite happy with ...

Re: Track Drop-down Menu commands

Robert, I presume that you use Jaws with Audacity? I'm not familiar with Jaws, but I gather there is some sort of customisation script that improves Audacity's accessibility, is that correct? When you use the current "Move Track Up / Down" commands, what feedback do you get from Jaws about...

Re: Ringing/Feedback Sounds

Where did you get 3905 from? It's a compromise. Looking at the Spectrum exported data with a larger FFT size you can see that there are a couple of peaks: 3880.371094 -53.265541 3881.835938 -50.811146 3883.300781 -41.670887 3884.765625 -39.183887 3886.230469 -34.724258 3887.695312 -28.841604 3889.1...

Re: Ringing/Feedback Sounds

It's going to be difficult to tell where that whistling is coming from, whether it is the microphone, the pre-amp, or the computer, unless you are able to test each component separately. To filter out the whistle you can use this code in the Nyquist Prompt effect: (notch2 (notch2 s 7800 40) 3905 30)

Re: Macro / Presets for more than one Effect at one time?

Audacity has a feature called "Chains" that allows you to create a "chain" of effects that can then be applied (like a macro) in sequence to the selected audio:

Re: Regarding: vocal reaction time and new user

We are not psychologists so we don't know what you are trying to measure or how you are trying to measure it. We can help you to use Audacity if you can clearly specify the task that you are trying to achieve in layman's terms, otherwise I suggest that you use software that is designed for the task,...
